Can You Hear Me Now?

Attention!  Attention!
We all want to be heard.
..... The Word .....
is as powerful out from you
as from me.

Listen!  Listen!
Hear the voice
that cries to be heard
from the moment of its birth.

Listen to the children,
hear the teenager,
the young adult, middle-aged
or oldster who all have
a voice of their time.

Silence!  Silence!
Within No Sound lies
a Voice Most Profound
that speaks to us all
if we but listen.
